Really? I thought the loudness wars peaked around the mid 2000’s/2010’s. I feel like it’s become less prominent in the last few years

They do! :p

Yeah! I saw The Room for the first time last month in an art house theatre it was great

It’s very nostalgic to me, I remember watching it a ton as kid on VHS. It’s not GOOD but I think of it fondly

Oh fair! I’ve never actually played that one, only Katamari Damacy and Beautiful Katamari, I should check it out sometime

Haha always

Some of my favourites:

• NieR Automata
• Katamari Damacy
• Chrono Trigger
• DOOM 2016
• Celeste
• Sonic Adventure 2

Yes! NieR Automata is one of my favourite OSTs ever

I don’t know if it’s insensitive but it does seem unintuitive. Yeah “LGBTQ+” doesn’t include everything in it’s name but it’s a short acronym that’s easy to remember and say. If I’m in the middle of a conversation I probably can’t remember 2SLGBTQQIA+. At the end of the day it’s just language to communicate ideas, and I think LGBTQ+ gets the point across clearly. Alternatively you can just say Queer.

Yeah I feel similarly. I created a magazine and was excited about moderating it even, but I’m not very much of a poster, more a lurker and commenter. But yeah it has a few subscribers now so I should probably just make some posts as a start at least

I think I joined Mastodon around September or October 2022? But I hadn’t heard of Kbin until a few weeks ago :p
Actually I wasn’t familiar with the fediverse at all outside of Mastodon before then

I’m not religious myself but I do understand it sometimes. I feel like it can be a way to make sense of a world that doesn’t really make sense a lot of the time. It can be nice to have at least something to hold on to.
But people who use religion as an excuse to do bad? Hate them

Sorry but that looks ugly- not a fan of the look
I didn’t expect Windows 12 to be announced for another few years, didn’t 11 only come out last year?

Yeah me neither, I’m not a practising witch so it doesn’t feel like my place to start that community

Yeah i heard of Lemmy first, but when I found out about the developers being tankies I switched to Kbin. I actually prefer Kbin a lot now! It’s obviously still earlier in development but I think it shows more promise.

Yeah every so often. Sometimes I get reminded of people I used to people very close to and wonder how they’re doing. I guess it’s just a fear of “We already lost contact before, what if I connect with them and then just lose contact again?” Idk maybe I should just do it sometime just to get the thought out of my head, but the idea makes me very anxious

Oh cool I didn’t know! That was always such a nice community on reddit ^^

Hey! I’m a 23 year old trans woman. Mostly here for talking about videogames, game dev, music and being queer. :)

I loved witches vs patriarchy! Would be cool to have a similar place here maybe

So when it comes to copyright music can actually be divided into two things: the song itself (the lyrics and melodies) and the performance of a song (the recording). I don’t know the entire situation but I’m guessing Taylor Swift owns the rights of the songs themselves, but not the rights to the recordings of the songs that were made, so she’s in her right to make her own recordings of the songs and then she would have full ownership of those. (Sidenote: I study composing for media and though copyright is part of my study, I’m not an expert)
